Description

Occupying a prominent corner position on De Beauvoir's sought-after garden square, this exceptional four-storey Neo-Jacobean residence dates back to the 1840s and has been thoughtfully reimagined by design studio Irenie. The result is a beautifully restored home that celebrates its historic charm while introducing bold, contemporary touches.

The house retains striking original features, including oriel windows and an elegant curving staircase, complemented by modern interventions such as a light-filled kitchen crowned by a glazed roof lantern and a bespoke colour palette. Throughout, the interiors are filled with imaginative details and carefully curated design pieces, offering a one-of-a-kind living environment.

The lower ground floor is home to a characterful kitchen with maple cabinetry, reclaimed Iroko worktops, and a lantern skylight that brings natural light into the space. From here, doors open onto a landscaped garden created by award-winning designer Peter Beardsley. The garden features tiered planting, raised beds, and a dedicated barbecue area, with thoughtful details such as a reclaimed emerald green door from the original house adding a playful sense of discovery.

Across the upper floors, there are three well-proportioned bedrooms and three versatile reception rooms, one of which can be adapted as a fourth bedroom or snug. The stairwell, painted in a bespoke red shade, provides a striking focal point and nods to the roses of De Beauvoir Square.

Attention to detail is evident in every corner of the home – from diamond-pattern tiled floors that echo the original leaded windows, to the curated selection of designer furniture and artwork that enhance the interiors. This is a property that not only offers flexible, comfortable living but also tells a story, seamlessly weaving together heritage and contemporary design.


De Beauvoir is a highly desirable pocket of North London, prized for its village-like atmosphere and strong creative spirit. Its tree-lined streets are dotted with independent shops, cosy cafés, and popular eateries, giving the neighbourhood a lively yet welcoming feel. Local favourites include the much-loved De Beauvoir Deli for gourmet produce and Hector's wine bar – a stylish spot to meet friends.

Food lovers are spoilt for choice, with Duke's Brew & Que serving American-style barbecue, Sweet Thursday specialising in wood-fired pizzas, and The De Beauvoir Arms offering classic pub dining, including a traditional Sunday roast. For those interested in health and wellbeing, there are yoga studios, fitness clubs, and the tranquil Regent's Canal just moments away – perfect for walking, running, or cycling.

The vibrant amenities of Upper Street in Islington are within easy reach, providing theatres, galleries, and an extensive range of restaurants and bars. With excellent transport connections into the City, Shoreditch, and central London, De Beauvoir offers the ideal balance between peaceful community living and quick access to the capital's cultural and business hubs.
